  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
  • Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
  • To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray scanning.
  • Empty everything from your pocket, such as your keys, phone and wallet, and place them in your carry-on instead of into bins. This will reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
